beach hat

Sandy day cover

A beach hat is a wide-brimmed hat worn for sun protection at the beach or poolside.

The broad brim shades the face and neck from direct sunlight.

Beach hats are typically made of straw, canvas, or other lightweight materials: She packed a floppy beach hat for the trip.
